Even better, Binance emerges revitalized, establishing itself as a crypto fortress that has not yet spoken its last word.

Binance: A Crypto Titan Raking in Billions
Binance, champion of innovation, displays an insolent financial health. Alone, the exchange holds more than 60,000 BTC of unrealized profits. This amounts to nearly 6 billion dollars, a historic record. The average acquisition price of these bitcoins is said to be $56,000, compared to $105,970 currently. This margin is impressive. And it reflects the platform’s strategic skill.But that’s not all. Binance claims 250 million users by the end of 2024, 275 million as of early June, with more than $100,000 billion in cumulative transaction volume. Despite increasingly fierce competition, it maintains a spot market share of 25.4%. These numbers speak for themselves. They show that Binance remains a colossus in the crypto sector, resilient in the face of headwinds.Despite a drop in performance in certain segments, the exchange continues to attract investors. Its margins, scale, and robustness make it a central player, difficult to dislodge.
Users Loyal to Their Digital Vault
While many crypto holders opt for cold wallets, Binance still attracts. Its hybrid model, between hot wallet and cold wallet, appeals. Customers see it as a good compromise between security, flexibility, and profitability.
In May-June 2025, despite a trend of withdrawals from exchanges, a flow of $55 million was recorded in a single day. This reflects a recovery of confidence in the platform. Binance is not just an exchange: it is a modern-day vault.
